Tx, for the answers but i am not quit there yet.
I am able to trigger the search_button? I can see the alerts i have
set
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#content").css("overflow-y", "hidden");
$("#manageList").click(function() {
$("#content").css("overflow-y", "scroll");
$("#content").load("list.php");
});
$('body').click(function(event) {
if ($(event.target).is('#search_button')) {
var search_word = $("#searchTerm").val();
var dataString = 'search_word='+ search_word;
if(search_word=='')
{
alert("no searchterm");
}
else
{
alert("search");
ajax_search();
/* $.ajax({
type:"GET",
url:"list.php",
data: dataString,
dataType:"json",
success:ok,
error:err
});*/
}
}
});
});
function ajax_search() {
$("#search_results").show();
var search_word=$("#searchTerm").val();
alert("ajax search this "+search_word);
$.post("list.php", {
searchTerm : search_word,
}, function(data){
if (data.length>0){
$('#content').html(data);
}
})
}
I am checking with firebug but list.php doesn't seem to be parsed/
triggered???
Function ajax_search seems to stop after the alert message
